JV Wildcats Capture Summer League Crown

The Wharton Wildcats junior varsity team defeated the Jesuit Tigers to capture the Berkeley Prep Summer League championship in a thrilling overtime performance.

They were lead by returning players Virgil Crump, Jaken Grier, Solomon Bey, Nick Rogers and Brian Acken as well as newcomers JC Ulbrich, Sai Gude and Thomas Tonelli.

Coach Comer Copeland's leadership and outstanding coaching skills helped guide the team to their 12-2 record on the way to winning the championship.

On the final night of the playoffs, Wharton gutted out three wins including the overtime game against the Tigers. Fatigue plagued Wharton and some players suffered from muscle cramps but in true Wildcat fashion they found the "Wharton Way" to pull out the dramatic victory.

The Wharton Wildcats junior varsity program's winning tradition has always been a reflection on how successful the varsity program has been throughout Wharton's history.

Congratulations to Coach Comer Copeland and his team on their tremendous effort and the well deserved championship.
